This course will help you rethink the way you look at life’s difficulties, manage stress and anxiety levels. It will help you to shift your perspective and reassess your experiences.

Developed by Sita Brand and Adam Sargant for Settle Stories, this programme uses Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), mindfulness and story to improve your well-being. We often find we live in the story of the world we unconsciously create for ourselves. By becoming aware that we are story creators, and learning how to recreate our stories we give ourselves tremendous power over our lives.Reframe and reshape your narrative. Transform your own patterns of behaviour and create your path to success.

This popular course is now available as an online course that you can do at your own pace. Click here for details.

What previous participants told us:

“I have really enjoyed being in a course that works with ‘experience learning’ and it was just what I needed”

"This course has changed me. I found it easy to understand the techniques, because I learned that there is no right or wrong. Certain prompts remind me to be more grounded and that has meant I am less self-critical. That has made a big difference every day."

“I really enjoyed it and found the course really interesting and useful”
